German magazine "Computer Bild Spiele" is claiming that Ubisoft has denied them access to a review copy of "Assassin's Creed 2″ because they refused to guarantee the publisher that the review was going to be at least a 'sehr gut', which roughly translates to an english ‘A'.

A short verbiage on the cover of the magazine reads:
"ASSASSIN'S CREED 2 SCANDAL!
PUBLISHER WANTED US TO GUARANTEE A SCORE OF ‘SEHR GUT'"

Current issue, Computer Bild Spiele writes:

"Our reviews are tough, but fair. We will not give up our independent scores for the sake of a timely review. This holds true for "Assassin's Creed 2″. The publisher asked us to guarantee the score 'sehr gut', otherwise we would not receive a review copy, thus we will publish our review in next month's issue. We'd be more than glad to give the game a 'sehr gut', but only if it deserves it."
